According to Gemini to run full 256k context window with unified RAM 4-bit Quantized (Q4_K_M GGUF): You need at least 25 GB of total RAM. This is the most practical configuration f…

I don't know, but for me setting temperature to 0 has a noticeable impact. I don't think you need a fine tune.

Gemma 4 31b is better for coding than Gemini in my limited testing on a small C project single source file project, less than 1000 lines. Setting temperature to 0 gives better resu…

C. At least with Gemma 4 it does a fine job. Writes good error checking. Writes memory management. Mostly straightforward and easy to read. A lot of libraries. Runs everywhere.

JPEG codec MPEG 1 codec Minimal HTTP server of actually used features.

Over the past couple of weeks I wrote a macos/ios app with objc and c. It's like a 2d game with most code in C which is also used on Linux. Draws the whole view with MTKView and us…

Increasing pixel count increases processing in all image gen im aware of. I guess my question is more about why the tradeoff to higher resolutions is taken when resolution is clear…

The real time rendered parts. Obviously movie CGI frequently looks real. Are there any examples of lower resolution games that look real?

The easiest terrorist attack is getting a few people to rent apartments with gas across a city, leave the gas open on the stove for a day or whatever, and then simultaneously ignit…

I bought a USB C SanDisk 1TB external drive a few years ago. With included USB C cable it connects at 10Gbps. With the included USB A adapter it connects at 480Mbps. That's only us…

Nice to see someone else thinks about this. In my personal project webserver I don't. I didn't measure, but just trying not to do unnecessary work.

I agree with the first sentence. I don't think in 2023 a new programming language will help humans in a significant way.

I don't think in a language. I think about what I want to do and then write code to do it.

I've been dealing with email deliverability for the past 4 days as part of a new project. The requirements are to send login codes when the user provides the email for a likely sma…

Are programming languages really a limiting factor for anyone?

What is the goal of programming language research?

I've only ever done software. Never had an actual EE job. Getting an EE was one of the best choices I ever made. You'll also likely have more interesting hobbies. EE gives a high l…
